Question: My mom bought me a protein shake from gnc but im afraid to drink it cuz i might get too big.?
my mom bought me "MASS XXX" chocolate and vanilla flavors from GNC. but the problem is - i'm afraid to drink it cuz i might get too muscular and big. i think that is disgusting. what i want is a defined body like david beckham. not like hulk hogan. i'm 16, i'm thin, and i just want nice tone muscles. should i still drink the protein shake my mom bought me.Health Question & Answer
Answers:
if you're thin now,
you won't get "hulk hogan-ized" over night
so you drink it for awhile...
if you get to the point that you feel like you have enough muscle,
don't drink it as often
but anyway, drinking a protein shake isn't going to make much of a difference
you need to actually work out
the protein shakes are for athletes who already work out
(and therefore build up the muscle)
when they finish a workout, the may drink a protein shake to renew their fuel and help repair muscle damageHealth Question & Answer

1. hogan did steroids
2. protein powder is NOT a steroid..it is generally a dehydraded skim milk with added flavor and differing amounts of fat
3. its called a supplement becausee its supposed to supplement a good diet...its not a magic pill
4. how old are you.? maybe you should be concentrating on bodyweight exercises like push ups...one legged squats...pull ups
5. assuming your mom listened to the sales clerk at gnc she's probably misinformed....never listen to the gnc person as they're about as informed as oprah

lolol you won't get big from drinking protein shakes, if you would, we wouldn't have skinny people. you have to lift a lot, have a good diet, and get a ton of sleep to make any gains, and it takes years to get big. drinking some protein powder isn't going to make you big, it's only a pwo supplement that provides you with nutrients for pre/post workoutHealth Question & Answer
Just 1 shake.? You won't suddenly explode like the incredible hulk into a giant! You need to work out for it to do anything at all. Plus, you are still young, it will be a few years before you can be all total muscled, you are still growing.Health Question & Answer
Look, if your mom it for you, you'll be fine. As long as you don't hit the gym 24 hours a day, there's no problem. Those big weightlifters have to lift weights religiously.Health Question & Answer
You're not going to get big right away. The shakes will on add weight; you need to convert that weight into muscle. Just by drinking some protein shakes will not automatically "buff you up".
Good luck!Health Question & Answer

It wont just instantly make you buff, just dont work out. Or if you want to get more defined, you have to do many reps with low weight. Health Question & Answer
